Senderos - We have a mental edge over Milan

Philippe
Senderos believes Arsenal have a "mental edge" going
into tonight's Champions League clash with Milan.

The Swiss defender was outstanding in the goalless first leg at
Emirates Stadium, keeping the likes of Kaka and Alexandre Pato
quiet after replacing the injured
Kolo Toure after just seven minutes.

Senderos will need a repeat performance in the San Siro tonight
- he is expected to start with Toure still sidelined - but the
23-year-old expects Milan's back four to be under plenty of
pressure too, just as they were 13 days ago.

"I don't think the first leg was a missed
opportunity," Senderos told Arsenal.com. "In fact,
mentally we've got an edge on them because we put them on the
back foot in the first game, we put them under a lot of
pressure.

"Even though we didn't score in the first game, we
didn't concede either and that's a very positive thing.
Looking towards the second leg we know one goal for us can change
the whole tie around.

"I think Milan will be cautious because they know we can
catch them on the break. If we get the goal everyone knows we are
capable of, it will put them under a lot of pressure. We will
definitely be up for it."
